Or better yet, use an AIM client like Adium that allows you to set a fake idle time!

"OMG Brad's been away for 451 DAYS?! The poor bastard must've died and never had the chance to turn off his computer. "

Seriously, though, "show idle time" is the FIRST feature I turn off on every client I've ever used. No one needs to be able to track where I am that much.

The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts. The only way to guarantee thoughtful, informative discussion is to write thoughtful, informative posts. AppleNova is not a real-time chat forum. You have time to compose messages and edit them before and after posting.
